This book.. was amazing. the writing is beautiful. it's a relatable book (unfortunately) with characters who are so diverse. this book is an inspirational tale of how people can stand up to discrimination and find themselves the way there. i would recommend this book to any person because they WILL find something valuable and a character to whom they relate. as an autistic girl who loves marine life, erin was such a relatable character and the way she was written made me feel heard. amazing read. the only comment i have is that after a few months, the themes are memorable, but the memory of reading it isn't as fond or impactful. if i were to read it again, the rating would surely move up.
